The second you start equating one political side as representing "evil", you're starting to go too far.

This isn't fucking Star Wars. It's politics. Things are a lot more grey than that, and if you can't see that then you're both a wingnut and ridiculously naive.

One of the problems you have is you appear to believe all Republicans (or Democrats) always hold the same views.

They don't. Not everyone in one party holds the same views. That's the point. That's what I've been getting at. The Republican party isn't the Justice League, and the Democrats aren't Every Villain Is Lemons,

I think most Americans choose to associate with like-minded individuals (not identical). Often it takes a team effort to get something accomplished. Were you ever picked to be on a team? Did you follow the play or go your own way? Yes there are Democrats that hold some good Republican ideas but they are in the wrong boat going the wrong way. Perhaps someday they will right their course or jump ship.

No you're sort of proving Jack's point. Most people make their own minds up about each issue and come election time cast their vote for the party or individual whose policies tally most closely with their own opinions. It seems you lack the ability to make up your own mind and rely on the Republican party to do it for you.

"Thank you Rush for doing my thinking for me, because I lack the ability to think critically and independently."

I don't see how having a closed mind helps to be a team player, surely the opposite is true?

No, since Barry Goldwater, my views have aligned mostly with the Republicans, but they didn't form my views. There are Republicans I disagree with but there are many more Democrats that I disagree with.

I'll assume you disagree with those Republicans because they possess some "non-Republican" views.

Alright then, what sort of stuff do you disagree about with other Republicans?
